Fresh from India’s 2-1 T20I triumph over Australia, the ICC rankings have delivered major boosts for several protagonists. Leading the Indian charge is fast bowler Arundhati Reddy, who vaulted five spots to her pinnacle 11th ranking in T20 bowling.
Reddy’s series was a revelation: a devastating 4-22 opener, backed by 2-30 and 2-35 in the subsequent games. Her eight wickets underscored why she’s a cornerstone of India’s white-ball attack.
Teammate Shri Charani dazzled with an 11-place leap to 26th, courtesy of five wickets that kept Australia’s scoring in check.
Australia responded with Sutherland rising two to second in bowling and Gardner to 18th bowling/third all-rounder. Wareham’s batting explosion—26 places to 10th—ties her with Rodrigues (up one), while Litchfield sits at 12th post a four-spot gain.
Top bowling honors stay with Sadia Iqbal. In ODIs, South Africa’s Luus advanced to 30th batting/17th all-rounder, Kapp to second all-rounder, Mlaba to ninth bowler, and Ramharack to 26th.
This rankings revamp arrives amid a packed calendar, promising fiercer rivalries and spotlighting players who could define the format’s future.
